Market research services in southern Africa - SAMRA
Organisations and individuals in
  southern Africa providing market
  research services
  SAMRA is often asked by manufacturers and other bodies to suggest organisations or
  individuals who might appropriately be asked to deal with certain problems. The Research
  Company Index is intended to address these queries.

  Any person who joins SAMRA has to give an undertaking to maintain certain standards in
  his work, standards which SAMRA itself has laid down. A Full Member of the Society (as
  opposed to an Associate Member) has to provide, in addition, evidence of a certain level
  of experience in Market Research. SAMRA Corporate Member companies have at least one
  Full Member. All entries included in the register of organisations number among their staff
  at least one person who has SAMRA membership.

  Please note that all entries in this register are paid for. The descriptions of the services
  available are supplied by the individual organisations or individuals concerned. All the
  listed companies and individuals are prepared to accept work from any client if their
  commitments permit it. Some are able to offer a wide service in all fields of research and
  others have built up their business in specialised fields.

  Addresses and telephone numbers were correct at the time of going to press.

  NOTE: Whilst this register increases year by year, SAMRA would like the register to be
        as fully representative of the industry as possible. Those wishing to secure a new
        listing in the next Yearbook are asked to contact the SAMRA secretariat.

          “        Research is to see what everybody else
                    has seen, and to think what nobody
                              else has thought.

      “Create Winning Strategies”
      For over twenty years Bateleur has partnered blue chip companies in developing and delivering winning brand
      strategies for their markets.
      Our underlying philosophy is that great strategies are rooted in a deep understanding of consumers’ needs,
      their perceptions about brands and how these drive their behaviour. Your brand’s relevancy to consumers,
      coupled with its competitive superiority lies at the heart of a winning brand strategy.
      At Bateleur we have developed a host of unique, tried and test research tools designed to understand consumers
      needs, perceptions and behaviours in ways unattainable by run of mill research methods. These unique insights
      lead to a crystal clear understanding of your Brand Topography and Critical Brand Dimensions .
                                                                      TM                               TM

      This understanding, coupled with the experience of Bateleur’s senior partners, is the secret to creating winning
      brand strategies.

SMRC Marketing Solutions (Pty) Ltd, is a leading marketing, consulting and research firm that uses
a variety of techniques to arrive at a deeper understanding of consumer and business behaviour.
SMRC’s combination of services do not easily slot into conventional categories like ‘research company’,
‘marketing consultancy’, ‘management consultancy’, ‘CRM specialist’ or ‘Social and Development
consultancy’. SMRC can deliver in any or all of these areas, according to a particular client’s needs.
In all applications, however, the Company does claim exceptionally high delivery in the areas of client
knowledge, experience, professionalism and dedication. While these are often-claimed qualities (to the
extent of becoming a cliché in many business contexts), in SMRC’s case they are not the Company’s
words but those of its clients.

Marketing and Market Research
The company offers a broad spectrum of research and consulting services designed to increase Clients
marketing potential by providing expert assistance in understanding both consumer and business
behaviour. These services range from basic survey research to specialised analysis, modelling and
strategic planning.
SMRC specialises in the “Process for Integrated Relationship Marketing,” which translates into the
ability of a business to generate, maintain and increase the life expectancy of customer relationships,
thus increasing their life time value.
Within this context SMRC uses a novel and incisive approach to exploring the dynamics of consumer and
business behaviour and generating insights from qualitative research, in a structured method of probing
respondents, called “Active Listening”. The use of this technique permits SMRC to discover what a person
really thinks, what he/she really means by what he/she says and to ascertain his/her real opinion.
Focus Group Facilities
SMRC has State-of-the-Art Focus Groups Rooms for hire on a per session basis.

SMRC International Ltd
SMRC International is an affiliate of SMRC Marketing Solutions (Pty) Ltd with a home office in Kigali
Rwanda. While SMRC Marketing Solutions (Pty) Ltd focuses mostly on Southern Africa assignments;
SMRC International has been strategically positioned to undertake regional, continental and global
consulting assignments. It is also positioned to serve businesses, government and parastatal sectors
with strategic marketing research and management solutions to enhance organizational performance,
competitiveness and improve profitability. SMRC International, Kigali, Rwanda utilizes this capability and
adapts it to lessons learned from development experiences geared to improving the lives of the poor in
developing and emerging countries.

SMRC Marketing Solutions (Pty) Ltd is managed by William Harris, while SMRC International is managed
by Basil Karimba who between them have more than 45 years of business and academic experience in
managing consumer, industrial, business, financial product and communications research and marketing
programmes.
